Hi everyone, I'm new to this site as well as to quilting. Does anyone have some advice on what sort of quilts or quilting I should start on? :thumbup:

Welcome to the QB from the Buckeye State (Ohio). You'll love it here!
As for what to start with, look at quilts or pictures of them and see what kinds of things you like, what you're drawn to. Pick a simple pattern (so many great on-line sources), and fabrics you like. If you don't know anything at all, a quilting class for beginners (or someone who can teach you) would be very helpful, so you can learn how to accurately measure, cut, and sew. Just remember...have fun!
